Timebomb Trading, Canada’s action distributor of Etnies, Emerica, és, thirty-two, Dragon, LRG and RVCA, has a brand new original art piece in their HQ thanks to Randy Layborne. And it looks pretty nice.
Check out all the details on Randy’s flicker account.

The City of Encinitas California has been hard on Bucky Lasek. They made him go through months of planning and inspections, but it looks like his big ol’ 13.5 foot deep bowl is finally becoming a reality. And it only took one access road and 20 truck loads of cement.

Transworld Business put up some photos of the recently finished skatepark in Windell’s Camp Building Out Back. From the looks of it we’d pay for a week at Windell’s without even getting on snow.

Chris Nieratko and his pregnant wife took a trip to Cuba recently to hand out quality skateboards to the kids who can’t get them thanks to international politics. Here’s what was up:
Recently a crew of 18 friends and I flew to Cuba (via Panama) to give away skateboards to the kids down there who can’t get them because of the embargo. The full stories will appear in Vice and The Skateboard Mag in a few months. You can read the background story here. Or watch this inspirational little documentary on the scene down in Havana that prompted us to put the trip together.
This should be interesting. . .

Haven’t had the pleasure (and we do mean it) of hanging out with Ben Raybourn and Jaws Homoki lately? Now is your chance. We recommend it. These kids are cool.

We rarely get excited about skateboard magazines anymore. Not sure if it’s because they come out too often or what.
But when former SBC Skateboard’s Ryan Stutt, Harry Gils, and Scotty McDonald team up with Big Brother’s Dave Carnie and Chris Nieratko to create a magazine guest art directed by Todd Bratrud, well that’s something that gets our old ink-huffing neurons firing again. Even if King Shit is only doing two issues a summer.

This skateboard folds in half but doesn’t fit in a briefcase.

Yep, it’s that time of year when people with too much money party their way across this great nation of ours and hang out with their skeezy celebrity friends in the Gumball Rally 3000. And that’s really all there is to say about that.

One more little reminder that when compared to pool skaters most everyone else in skateboarding is a plushie.

Sometimes we just don’t get it. Gravis, the shoe company the Burton Corporation has been sinking money into for more than a decade, has released a shoe for the most beautiful boy in skateboarding and once again they’ve created something that no one will buy.
How do they do it? You’d think even by simply designing with a magic 8 ball you’d come up with a hit shoe every once in a while. . .but hey, at least they are trying right?
